Trent Lott has regained a position of leadership. He was the former majority leader who lost his post for racially insensitive commentary. I believe he mentioned that Strom Thurmond in 1948, who ran as a segregationist candidate, should have won. … But now, sound the irony alarm. He has recaptured a position and his position — I kid you not — in the Senate will be minority whip. So, my guess is he takes to that job like, let’s say, white on rice.
